It's the most well known Stranglers cover album. In fact, as far as I know, it's the only one.

There are tribute bands that have put out whole albums of Stranglers' covers and there's a collection put together by the good folks on this very Forum but this is the only commercial compilation of Various Artists out there.

I like about 50% of it which is about normal for these types of tributes. :smile:

Yeah, I have this. Most of it is disappointing, stright copies but not very well done. There are one or two tracks where they try to do someting different with the song, not bad efforts.
I wouldn't bother, if you don't have it. 8)

It's ok the versions of CURFEW (The truents) and VIETNAMERICA (Saintly assassins) are really the good, the rest fair to poor in all honesty. Never heard of any of these bands beyond this compilation though.
